AVS Fullscreen

The whole reason I downloaded Winamp was to see the Visulizations my friends make but I can only get the small screen. When I press fullscreen it just freezes the avs. I have seen it work on other computers, it takes the whole desktop. Is it my computer or the winamp? If it helps I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 Notebook, and the screen is a bit wider then most but I dont think thats the problem?

Before going fullscreen go to Settings > Fullscreen and set resolution/bpp 🙂
If you've already done it... I dunno, if you've got XP, switch to windows 2000, and install winamp 2.95 - www.winampheaven.net.

Maybe you have some issues with fullscreen overlay mode. Try messing with the fullscreen settings. And remember that AVS doesn't do large resolutions well.

Why the fuck would it help to install an older OS and an older winamp? for the machines slower than slow, which shouldn't run AVS at all?
